“Cherry girl” summer is *so* last season — because it is officially “cinnamon spice girl” fall. And with it, the terracotta-toned blonzers, cozy gourmand fragrances, pumpkin eye makeup, and dark, warm-colored manicures are coming in hot.
Along with gorgeous shades of burgundy and rose gold, cinnamon nail polish tones are seriously on trend right now. Think rusted browns, spicy oranges, and toasty ambers.
Hailey Bieber most recently kicked off the cooler months with a “toasted caramel” set of almond-shaped tips, proving that she’s the perfect reference for your fall mani mood board.
To rock the seasonal hue, you can incorporate it into your fave nail art designs, like French tips, aura nails, ombré, and half moons — or simply rock it as a solid color manicure.
Alternatively, you can skip the salon and reach for an artful press-on set or cinnamon nail polish to DIY the trend from home. Either way, keep scrolling for your ultimate guide to nailing (ahem) the fall-ready cinnamon spice manicure.
